Lots of Busse, Swamp Rat and Scrap Yard for sale. New inventory with pictures: here

I need a few grand to make my down payment. I haven't found the right house yet but with interest rates low and a real estate slump, I need 20% in the bank so I'm ready to move.

I hope I can find something in the $300,000 range but around here that buys a shack in a bad neighborhood (if I'm lucky). I'll have to budget for a good safe and an alarm system. Yeah, I know I should move to a free state and buy a nice house for that money but the industry I work for is based here. I could move to India or China but I think I would rather spend too much on a house.

I'm going to list a bunch of stuff and sell until I have enough cash, then the sale is over so if you see something you want, send me an email. Emails will be answered in the order they are received but during Blade I might not be able to check (either no internet access or too drunk). My pm box is almost full so please send me an email, no pm's.

Terms of the sale are cash up front, postal money order preferred, other money orders and checks will be held two weeks for clearance, no paypal. Shipping will be by USPS unless you request something else (at your expense and risk). International orders are welcome but if you want the description and declared value changed, that's your risk.

I try to handle transactions quickly but some times it's hard for me to get to the post office. I ask for one week to get things in the mail. For an order that's waiting on a check to clear, I should be able to package ahead of time and schedule shipping a day or two after it clears.

By the same token, I expect payment to be sent in a reasonably timely manner, if you say I'll take it and I haven't received payment two weeks later, I'll put it back up for sale.

Once again, if you didn't see it above, NO PAYPAL! Don't send an email asking about it, the answer is no. If you have any other questions about the details of my sale, feel free to send me an email.

I am open to face to face sales at Blade, just let me know what you want ahead of time and bring cash (no checks, credit cards or paypal).

Here's the list:

Busse Combat AK47 grey coated blade with black anodized Aluminum handle and two tone grey/black Okuden kydex sheath, mint condition. $1,200, reasonable offers will be considered.

Busse Combat Fusion Battle Mistress Limited Edition, mint condition, #XXX or #XXX. $withdrawn, reasonable offers will be considered.

Busse Combat miliganzaa Meaner Street, sage blade, black canvas handle, mint condition. $270, reasonable offers will be considered.

Busse Combat Zero Tolerance Battle Mistress, used for a little 2x4 chopping, some coating wear, the blade is fine, probably a little dull but I can get it sharpened by Ban. Withdrawn pending trade, reasonable offers will be considered.

Busse Combat Hell Razor, standard black canvas handle, stripped finish, half ass satin job, Infi dimples on the tang, used, the blade is fine, probably a little dull. It would make a great project or a slightly ugly user. $Sold and shipped.

Busse Combat Game Warden "Fire Warden", satin blade with bead blasted "flames", red G-10 handle, mint condition. $210, reasonable offers will be considered. All gone.

Swamp Rat Ratmandu, xxx blade, xxx handle, mint condition. $180, SPF.

Scrap Yard Street Scrapper 4, INFI steel, Resiprene-C Mudder handle, engraved logo, mint condition, these will never be made again. $Sold and shipped. As with every SS4, mine have the gap at the handle and some of the logos are missing ears, just like they came from Scrap Yard. I have a few inexpensive kydex sheaths also.

More knives and prices listed after I do an inventory and price research.

I have multiples of some of the smaller knives so don't be surprised if I don't mark something SPF after you say I'll take it.

I added some jacked up prices because I haven't had time to research prior sales.

I should have a complete list with better prices by tomorrow.

I think that buying a house is important enough to avoid getting ripped off.
 
Preliminary list.

It's long, I am sure I made a few mistakes and typos. Prices are preliminary also, I was only able to inventory what I am willing to sell, no time to research prices but reasonable offers are welcome.

Pictures are coming soon but I'm a lousy photographer and it shows.

Busse Combat Hell Razor, sage blade, re-handled by Ban with a black canvas micarta handle. $400.00 Reasonable offers will be considered. This color combo was never offered by the factory, the knife started with black/tan G-10 magnum handles which were swapped out for standard black canvas. Definitely unique but it didn't come that way from the factory.

Hogwash, I sent you an email asking about the shade of the RMD, but haven't got a response.
 
Sorry, it's light grey.

I bought both of the Ratmandu's at Blade and they didn't have dark grey at the time.

I think they had six flavors, muddy, sage/black canvas, black/black canvas, black/black G10, light grey/black G10 and one with a green blade, I can't remember the handle.
 
I'm going house hunting today, in the 1992 murder capital of the U.S., East Palo Alto.

Send out a search party if you don't hear from me soon.



I have returned.

It's not a very bad ghetto. The previous owners were crack heads and dealers. They almost burned the place down, but they are gone now. The neighbors I talked to seemed to think that things were getting better, only one dope peddler left in the neighborhood.

I am going to schedule a real viewing and go inside soon. It's cheap enough that I can fix a lot of it's problems and still have a pretty cheap house.
